Hello,

Almost certainly one of the first things we are going to do (besides minding any mechanical/safety issues) when we finally get our HAT is to paint the hull. I am having a difficult time deciding, so I wonder if there is an advantage to one or the other...i.e. is either color more durable than the other?

Also, do people who paint their hulls one of the above colors necessarily paint the top sides a bright white or do these colors look ok with the standard "Hatteras off white" color?

Thanks ahead of time for indulging me...

John
